It seems like the Tesla nav doesn't buffer. I am constantly driving around in my home area and the maps show up blank due to a momentary glitch in LTE i guess. Why aren't your home area maps that you drive frequently stored?

From what I can tell, the basic map completely exists on the vehicle, the satellite has to be downloaded. This becomes pretty obvious when you don't have cellular coverage.
I'm glad that they did it this way, because not knowing where you are going because you don't have cellular coverage is pretty stupid.
That's incorrect. I never use sat view and experience exactly what I describe.Turn the satellite view off and just go with the standard highway view.

Yeah, that's just plain stupid for a $70k-150k car.This just isn’t true. No cell coverage, no maps. I go through the same 10 mile stretch with no cell service every day and half of my map screen fills in with blank gray tiles until I get back into an area with service.
Yeah for a much "high tech" there is in this car, there really isn't that much.
The high tech is largely limited to the batteries/drive train and sensors/AP
Most things cabin/interface related could sorely use some help
- Maps
- Voice operation of the car (why can't I voice dial a number directly or more importantly confirm which number I want to call when the contact has multiple)
- Phone integration (some please besides the extreme basics we have)
- Be able to actually use the browser instead of it always being locked up
I mean I love the car but there are some really easy/obvious things that should be done to bring it up to other much lower range car standards.
To that I agree. That's why it's silly to then limit it by having it retrieve the maps constantly as I drive around. It's like constantly playing a PS2 where the background objects would suddenly pop into view. I'm mildly annoyed at how often I see blank tiles on my nav screen.While this is true, the 17 inch google maps display is far better than most OEM navigation I've used including BMW, Lexus, Mercedes.
